Muffins + Breads

Add some healthy homemade muffins and breads to your kid’s plate with these delicious and easy recipes! Formulated by a registered dietitian and mom, each of these recipes is full of flavor and designed to be healthier than the packaged muffins and breads at the store.

This includes using whole grains or oats instead of all purpose flour, substituting some ripe bananas or applesauce for oil, and using natural sweeteners whenever possible.

I also find muffins and breads to be a great way to add some extra fruits and veggies to my kids’ diets in a really convenient, easy format. 

For example, these green monster muffins taste just like regular muffins, yet they have a dark green color thanks to fresh spinach! It’s literally never been easier than this to get your kids to eat their greens!

These healthy date muffins are naturally sweetened with dates and applesauce and have whole wheat flour as the base. They’re perfect for serving with your little one’s breakfast or lunch or to offer as a nutritious snack on the go!

Love make ahead snacks like these? You’ll love the 40 recipes for easy make ahead snacks in Healthy Little Bites! Each recipe is formulated to be easy to make once and serve again and again, saving you time and money and helping your kids eat well every day.

My Feeding Philosophy

I get it. Feeding kids can be tough.
I’ve learned that the key to getting kids to try new foods is to keep it fresh and exciting, get them involved, and inject a little enthusiasm and creativity into how you serve them up. Above all else, don’t give up. If you’re serving balanced meals and snacks throughout the day, then you’re doing a good job!
